This Patek Philippe, you know that Patek Philippe Calatrava 6007G-010, it’s a real deal, I tell ya. Original order, my boy said, it’s like, the real thing, just like them fancy folks wear. Cost an arm and a leg, I reckon, but it looks so darn good!
They say it’s a good thing to put your money in, like them gold coins my old man used to collect. But shinier. This Patek Philippe, it’s like them fancy cars, only smaller. Nautilus, Aquanaut, Calatrava, they got all these names, like them cows Farmer Johnson used to have. This one, Calatrava, they say it’s the one to get.
They said this watch, it’s white gold. Now, I ain’t never seen white gold before, but it sounds mighty fancy. And it got them hands, like on a regular clock, only they glow in the dark. Like them fireflies we used to catch in jars. They call it “luminescent coating”. Highfalutin words for something that just glows, I reckon.
Now, you want one of these? They say you gotta wait. And wait. And wait some more. Like waiting for the rain in the summer. Could be 8 years, could be 12 months, depends on what you want. This Calatrava, maybe it ain’t so long a wait. But that other one, the Nautilus, boy, you’ll be grey before you get that one!
- This 6007G-010, it’s 40 mm, whatever that means.
- They say it shows the brand’s “commitment” to something called “timeless elegance.”
- It’s round, like a pie. Simple. Like me.
They got all these fancy types of this here Patek Philippe. Some got the moon on ’em, some got the date, like that calendar we got hanging in the kitchen. This one, they said it’s special. Came out a few years back, only made a thousand of ’em. Something about a new building they built. Fancy folks and their buildings, I swear.
You can find these watches, my boy said, on that there internet. Some website called Chrono-something. They say you can get this Calatrava 6007G-001, free shipping! Ain’t that something? Shipping used to mean them big boats, not a little watch in the mail.
This watch, it’s got a black strap. Like that leather on my old boots, only fancier. They call it “calfskin,” embossed with a “carbon” motif. Sounds like something you’d find in the coal mine, but prettier, I suppose. They call it “one of the finest Patek Philippe styles.” I reckon it would look good on anyone, even old me.
Patek Philippe, they been making these watches since before I was born. 1839, my boy said. That’s a long time. Longer than I been alive, that’s for sure. They know what they’re doing, I reckon, making these fancy things. This Calatrava, they call it that because of some style. Represents the history, they say. History of making fancy watches, I suppose.
Now, my old man, he always said, “A good watch is worth more than gold.” I never understood it back then. But looking at this here Patek Philippe Calatrava 6007G-010, maybe he was right. It’s shiny, it’s pretty, and they say it’s worth a lot of money. Maybe it is like them gold coins, only you can wear it on your wrist.
You know, they say there’s a Patek Philippe watch that’s real hard to get. Some number, 6300A-010, I think. They call it the “Grandmaster Chime.” Sounds like that old clock in the town square. This one, it’s got 20 “complications.” I don’t know what that means, but it sounds complicated. They made it for their anniversary, 175 years, they said. That’s a lot of years making watches.
- They say this Nautilus 5711/1A and the Aquanaut 5167/1A-001, they go up in price.
- Like them crops, only instead of going bad, they get more valuable.
- These watches, they’re like little treasures, I reckon.
This Patek Philippe Calatrava, it’s a nice thing. Simple, but fancy. Like a Sunday dress, but for your wrist. If you got the money, and you got the time, maybe it’s something to think about. It’s more than just a watch, they say. It’s a piece of history. A piece of art. A piece of something special. And who knows, maybe it’ll be worth more than gold someday. Just like my old man said.
